Sisler Somehow Survives
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Aiki Yoshida opened to 2,000 from the cutoff and then called after Scott Sisler three-bet to 12,000 out of the small blind.
Sisler moved all in for a little under 30,000 on the 5?3?Q? flop and Yoshida made the call with the covering stack to put his opponent at risk.
Scott Sisler: 7?7?
Aiki Yoshida: A?Q?
Yoshida had flopped well to leave Sisler's pocket pair drawing thin. The 9? turn changed nothing, leaving Sisler needing to find one of the two remaining sevens in the deck on the river. That is exactly what happened after the 7? completed the board to deliver a brutal beat to Yoshida while handing Sisler a full double.
